Chapter 24: You Can't Live Here
Listening to the housekeeper's persuasion, Jiang Xiao's heart was much better.
The housekeeper saw that Jiang Xiao's mood was a little better, but when he thought of his young master, he said to Jiang Xiao with a smile on his face: "Young grandma, in fact, the young master is very good, he is very smart from childhood to adulthood, basically everything as long as he learns everything, don't look at his usual cold appearance, but he actually has a good heart." ”
Saying this, the housekeeper's eyes saw Jiang Xiao's body, and he noticed that the other party did not interrupt when he heard what he said, and he also expected the two to reconcile in his heart.
Immediately, he continued to step forward and pour a glass of water for Jiang Xiao, and continued in his mouth: "I don't know what happened before, but young grandma, listen to me, you are now a member of the Gu family, and you don't have to care about other things." ”
Jiang Xiao's whole heart was very chaotic, she was really wronged by her own mother like that before, she thought that even if she was a marriage 'machine'.
But he is also a person with true feelings, but those people in the family come up either cynical or sarcastic, and many times Jiang Xiao feels that he can't stand it.
Hearing the housekeeper's comfort at this time, her mood was indeed a little better, but even if it was a little better, it didn't mean that she could accept everything Gu Cheng had done to her.
The more he thought about it, Jiang Xiao's head lowered, as if he was thinking about something in his heart.
The housekeeper next to him looked at Jiang Xiao like that, and felt a little helpless in his heart, but he could only turn around and retreat from the room, planning to find other opportunities to persuade again.
"Jingle bell, jingle bell." It's just that the housekeeper just went out of the room, and the mobile phone in his pocket rang, and he subconsciously picked up the phone and saw that it was his son's number.
The housekeeper's eyes glanced at the door that had just been closed by him, and he quickly turned around and walked towards the living room, while swiping his mobile phone to pick it up happily.
"Yiming, why did you call me at this time? Is there something wrong? Like most parents, the housekeeper called him in front of his son, and the first thing he was worried about was that something had happened to him.
And Li Yiming, who was on the phone over there, heard his father's inquiry, and glanced at his boss Gu Cheng.
"Dad, I'm fine, don't think about it, I just called you to tell you that the young master and I will go back to dinner in the evening."
Originally, he was worried about whether something had happened to his son, but then when he heard his son's words, the housekeeper's face instantly filled with a bright smile.
The housekeeper asked happily, "Yiming, are you telling the truth?" Are you really going to come back for dinner with the young master? ”
Li Yiming heard his father's happy voice, so he told his father again about going back, and at the same time told the housekeeper a few words.
"Okay, okay, I know, I'll tell the young grandmother about this now." The housekeeper who got the definite answer immediately thought of Jiang Xiao in the room.
He wished that Jiang Xiao would reconcile with the young master of his family, so he hung up the phone and walked towards the door of the room again, reaching out and knocking on the door with a smile on his face.
"Butler, is there anything wrong with you?" Jiang Xiao was thinking about the previous thing in the room, and suddenly heard a knock on the door and stepped forward to open the door, but he saw the smile on the butler's face.
Immediately, Jiang Xiao's heart was puzzled, and he looked at the housekeeper with curiosity, wanting to know what the other party was happy about.
"Young grandma, my son will be back for dinner in a while, but we haven't seen each other for a while!"
The housekeeper originally wanted to tell Jiang Xiao the news that Gu Chenghui would come over, but he wanted to surprise the other party, so he only said that his son would come back, and his hands were unconsciously rubbed, as if he was really very happy.
Jiang Xiao was puzzled, but when she heard the housekeeper say that Li Yiming was coming back, she couldn't help but be happy for the housekeeper.
"Oh, it turns out that Yiming is coming back, which is a good thing, then I'll go and tell them to cook more food now."
As he spoke, Jiang Xiao walked towards the kitchen and quickly told a few people in the kitchen about letting them prepare meals.
The housekeeper behind him watched Jiang Xiao leave in a hurry, and there was a slight smile on his face, thinking that when Gu Cheng came back, the two of them must reconcile.
"Young grandma, is this okay?"
Because he knew that Li Yiming was coming back, Jiang Xiao was grateful just now, of course, he hoped that the housekeeper could be happy, so he kept watching the maid busy in the kitchen.
When she heard that the maid was sure of what was ready, she also turned her head to look at the ingredients, and nodded at them after finally making a decision.
"Okay, that's all! Hurry up and get ready, I think it's time for someone to arrive. ”
Just as Jiang Xiao was talking to the maid in the kitchen, the sound of the doorbell rang at the door, and the housekeeper, who had been holding the mood of waiting, rushed towards the door as soon as he heard the doorbell ring.
"Young Master, Yiming, you can be regarded as back!" When the door opened, the housekeeper saw Gu Cheng and Li Yiming coming in, and immediately retreated to the side, and opened his mouth with a smile.
Jiang Xiao, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the housekeeper's voice, and immediately knew that Li Yiming had arrived, and walked outside with a happy expression on her face.
"Yiming, you're back, you don't know when the housekeeper knows that you're back, don't mention how happy you are, you can ...... tonight" Keeping his head down, Jiang Xiao didn't notice Gu Cheng behind him.
She originally wanted to tell Li Yiming about the housekeeper's happiness, but when she got to the door, when she raised up and saw Gu Cheng standing beside Li Yiming, Jiang Xiao's words paused, and a stunned look appeared on her face.
Sensing the change in Jiang Xiao's mood, Li Yiming stepped forward and patted Gu Cheng on the shoulder, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to say it when I called today, I brought a good buddy of mine with me." ”
Originally, Jiang Xiao's heart was in response to Gu Cheng's arrival, but when she heard Li Yiming say that the two of them were good buddies, she immediately looked at the three of them in a daze, and looked at Gu Cheng with a look of disbelief in her eyes.
"What? You say this guy is your buddy? After reacting for a while, he subconsciously asked, and a plate in Jiang Xiao's hand slipped out of his hand in a panic.
When Gu Cheng came out of Jiang Xiao, his eyes focused on her, of course, he also saw Jiang Xiao's stunned appearance at the beginning, and now his surprise, also because he had been paying attention to Jiang Xiao, and he saw the plate that slipped for the first time.
"Be careful!"
Without giving Jiang Xiao time to react, Gu Cheng stepped forward, and with a reminder in his mouth, he stretched out his hand to catch the plate.
As he spoke, Gu Cheng held the plate in his hand, and his eyes also looked at Jiang Xiao, who had just come back to his senses.
"It was abrupt just now, this is your plate."
As he spoke, Gu Cheng handed the plate in his hand to Jiang Xiao, and he acted as if he didn't know Jiang Xiao during the whole process.
The housekeeper standing next to him was still a little embarrassed, but seeing that Gu Cheng didn't know Jiang Xiao at this time, he also quickly stepped forward to introduce the two of them.
"Oh, you see I forgot to introduce it, this is Jiang Xiao, this is Gu Cheng, my son Yiming's friend."
After the introduction, the housekeeper quickly stepped forward and pushed the backs of the two people, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, since you're back, don't be stunned at the door, hurry up and go in to wash your hands and eat." ”
In this way, under the urging of the housekeeper, Gu Cheng and Li Yiming went in to wash their hands.
And Jiang Xiao faced the situation that Gu Cheng deliberately pretended not to know, and he didn't know how to react in his heart for a while.
"Hurry up, move your chopsticks, I've made a lot of dishes today, you can eat more."
Finally, when it came to the dinner table, the atmosphere was a little weird for a while, in order to alleviate this embarrassing situation.
The housekeeper also picked up his chopsticks for the first time, and served dishes to several people one after another, hoping that a few people would eat with a smile on his face.
Jiang Xiao sat opposite Gu Cheng, and when she heard the housekeeper's voice, her eyes unconsciously glanced at Gu Cheng, but she could notice that the other party was just sitting calmly, and she could only pick up chopsticks to eat to hide her emotions.
"We had a lot of fun eating these dishes today, but it's late, I'll live here with Yiming!" Gu Cheng's heart had been planning all along, and he realized that the meal was almost over.
His eyes glanced at Jiang Xiao, who was lowering his head, then turned his head to look at Li Yiming, and also smiled and proposed to the housekeeper, as if he just wanted to stay every night.
Jiang Xiao thought that after this meal, this matter would be over, and this embarrassing situation would pass.
But what she didn't expect was that she suddenly heard Gu Cheng's proposal to stay overnight, and she panicked in her heart, Jiang Xiao didn't care about being strange, and raised her head and spoke in an undoubted tone.
"No, you can't live here."
At the same time, Jiang Xiao's eyes were also fixed on Gu Cheng, as if she would resist to the end if the other party spoke again.
"What's wrong? Why can't we stay? Li Yiming was eating, when he suddenly heard Gu Cheng's proposal, and then Jiang Xiao's refusal.
He swallowed a mouthful of food, raised his head, showed a strange look on his face, looked at several people, and his mouth also raised his own questions, it was obvious that Li Yiming also hoped to stay here at night.
The housekeeper also held his own selfishness in his heart, he hoped that Gu Cheng could stay, so that the relationship between Jiang Xiao and Gu Cheng could be eased.
But Jiang Xiao directly rejected this proposal, and after thinking about it in his heart, he took Li Yiming's words.
"Hey, Yiming, you said that you finally came back once, and Dad thought he could stay with you for a while, but he didn't expect ......"
